CompTIA A+ 220-1101 Practice Question

A company's graphic designer reports that her workstation is unable to match the network performance of her colleagues' computers, affecting her ability to upload large design files. All workstations, including hers, are connected to the same gigabit network. The network hardware appears to be functioning correctly for other users. What step should be taken FIRST to address the problem?

  • Replace the network cable connecting the workstation to the network, assuming it may be faulty.

  • Check the network configuration on the workstation to ensure it's set to automatically negotiate the connection speed and duplex mode.

  • Reposition the wireless access point closer to the user's workstation to improve signal strength.

  • Update the network driver on the affected workstation without checking current configuration or status.
